The space in this subway station is relatively small compared to domestic subway stations, and there are many passages. If this was not a subway station, it would be very popular if it was converted into an escape room. The space above the head and the surrounding tiles look very
It's ancient and somehow reminds Chen Xing of an air raid shelter.
When he was a child, he visited an air raid shelter near his home. The brick wall style and arched structure inside were exactly the same as the lobby station.
"Xing, you are from China, what is the subway like there?"
Chen Xing pondered for a few seconds and then said: "The subways in China are very wide, the passages are bright, white, and have a strong sense of technology. They are completely different from here."
Abel nodded and said: "It seems that your country is developing very well now. We read from the book that China is a country with an area comparable to the whole of Europe and a history of three thousand years. When I make enough money, I must
Go check it out."
Chen Xing corrected: "The history of our country is far more than three thousand years. It has been more than 4,700 years since the Huangdi period in recorded literature. The cultural relics excavated over the years are gradually confirming that era."
"Four thousand years? We always thought it was only three thousand years."
"Maybe your textbooks are slow to respond."
Chen Xing is not a professional in studying history, and he has only a limited understanding of these situations. He personally feels that Europe and the United States are intentionally or unintentionally lowering the value of China. Even if they don't pour some dirty water on them, even if they are friendly, how can they admit that they are not completely confirmed?
What about two thousand years?
China is still a bit conservative.
Europe can regard Homer's epics as official history, but if they regard The Classic of Mountains and Seas as official history, wouldn't they be scorning all countries in the world?
By the way, the best app for reading and listening to books is Yeguo Reading, .yeguoyuedu install the latest version.
Back to the subway issue.
Because Paris built the subway too early, a century earlier than China's subway, that's why their underground transportation looks so old and dim. But it is precisely because it started developing very early that the entire underground transportation in Paris is now connected in all directions.
The description is not an exaggeration at all. Whether tourists or locals, most of them prefer to use the subway to travel.
Entering the subway, the train arrival is not much different from that in China.
Buildings can last for a century, but cars obviously cannot. The vehicles of the Paris Metro have also undergone many replacements.
When you get out of the subway, you will see the Champ de Mars at the exit.
Chen Xing saw a chestnut tree, which was exuding fragrance. A couple was sitting on a bench below him, and there were vendors carrying ice-cold champagne around them. They used transparent glasses to hold champagne, and each glass sold for only 10 euros. Chen Xing also saw a vendor holding a large bouquet of roses.
The Champ de Mars is an excellent location to view the Eiffel Tower. Many pictures of the Eiffel Tower circulated on the Internet were taken here. There are many couples. Selling roses here is definitely a good business. If this industry is not so complicated, one month's income
Even more than opening a store and being the boss.
Abel went to order two glasses of champagne and said to Chen Xing.
"Thank you for letting me be your tour guide. This glass of wine celebrates our encounter."
The vendor washed the cup with water, and then pressed another valve to let the champagne in the water tank behind him flow from the faucet into the cup.
Chen Xing picked up the cup and looked at it for a while.
This should be his first time drinking champagne, he had only drank beer and liquor before.
This glass of wine is white with a little brown, and the rising bubbles make it look like Sprite, but the light is very transparent.
Abel also got his own wine glass and said to Chen Xing: "à tasanté"
"santé"
Wine glasses hit each other in the air.
Chen Xing took a sip first, and then drank more than half of the cup in one gulp. The rich aroma first filled his mouth, and then exploded. The taste was a mixture of multiple fruits, such as apples, bananas, grapes, cherries, etc.
And it doesn’t feel spicy at all.
After Abel finished drinking, he returned the glass to the champagne seller and asked: "Do you speak French?"
"Is there any?"
When was I exposed?
Chen Xing suddenly remembered that she said something in French when they were toasting, and subconsciously said something too.
Under normal circumstances, no one would think about what language they are speaking, especially Chen Xing, who is a native speaker of three languages. When he hears what others say, he will just say it himself without thinking carefully.
.
"Yes, your pronunciation is very standard, santé."
"What does this mean?"
"You really don't understand? Anyway, it means a toast." Abeka looked at Chen Xing with suspicious eyes and said.
Don't blame her for being confused, Chen Xing's pronunciation is too orthodox, not like someone who doesn't understand French.
The two of them walked along the path in the park, and there were more and more flower sellers.
There are many tourists on this road. Those who get off various means of transportation to go to the Eiffel Tower or come back from the Eiffel Tower will take this route. People come and go, and occasionally you can see some excitement on this road. For example, someone suddenly knelt down.
Instead of kneeling down in worship, he knelt down on one knee facing his girlfriend.
It's so thick, it's obviously a proposal.
Chen Xing has seen two couples succeed along the way. One of them was a man who proposed on the spur of the moment. He didn't bring a ring, but the girl was still moved and accepted the proposal, and there was a round of applause.
Chen Xing took two photos.
He feels that it doesn’t matter whether she wears a ring or not. If a woman is willing to come to Paris with you, she will definitely be willing to accept your proposal.
Abeka is complaining that men are too careless and don’t even wear rings.
In Europe, you must give a wedding ring when proposing.
After getting married, women should wear a ring on their ring finger. This tradition is passed down from Europe and the United States.
They will always wear their wedding rings and cannot take them off no matter what. It doesn't matter whether they are diamonds or not. In other words, most wedding rings are not set with diamonds because it will be very inconvenient when doing housework. Abeka and Chen Xing explained the marriage culture of European countries.
Chen Xing listened and asked questions, feeling like he was reshaping his outlook on life.
Not to mention other countries in Europe, at least the Parisian marriage traditions he learned about in Abeka are completely different from the so-called Western-style weddings in China.
The ring is a symbol of marriage, and not taking it off symbolizes a marriage that lasts until death.
A capable person can naturally buy a diamond ring, but the value of the diamond is not even as romantic as carving the names of both parties on the inside of the ring.
They didn't even take wedding photos, but at most took a few engagement photos before the wedding. Abeka also pointed to the people taking wedding photos under the Eiffel Tower in the distance and said: "Look, if you see such people anywhere in Paris
, no need to think about it, even a short-sighted person can guess that they are from Asia, and most of them are Chinese."
"..."
"This is a cultural difference. Not all Chinese people are like this. I prefer traditional weddings. The traditional weddings in our country wear bright red wedding dresses, phoenix crowns and harems, which are also very beautiful."
Abeka nodded and said with a smile: "As your tour guide, you can still know a lot about China. Last month, I also received two tourists from China. They rarely talk to me. They are usually us."
Talk, they just shop and nod."
While talking, they arrived at the bottom of the Eiffel Tower again, where they met before.
Abeka said: "Should we go up and have a look?"
"In a moment, I'll take a photo together."
Chen Xing took out his mobile phone and switched it to shooting mode, and instinctively looked for an angle in the square.
Abeka asked: "Do you need my help with the shooting?"
"No need."
Chen Xing found that if he wanted to take a group photo, it was best to take a photo at the section just after getting off the subway. There, he could take a panoramic view of the tower, but when he walked under the tower, he could only take a partial picture. Thinking of this, Chen Xing took a photo with
I walked back a little with Abeka, to a position where I could just take a panoramic shot.
They are still on the tree-lined road where many people are proposing. There are leaves on both sides, but the leaves are not dense in winter and can be used as a medium shot.
In this way, the photo becomes a close shot of Chen Xing, a mid shot of the leaves, and a long shot of the Eiffel Tower...
The system did not require Chen Xing to make the group photo look good. It can only be said that Chen Xing was so rigorous about photography that he was so diligent about this mobile phone photo.
It is difficult to use people as close-ups. If you can find such photos on the Internet and they are very harmonious.
The people among them must be very good-looking...
Take a photo with the Eiffel Tower
Young people have their own way of expressing love, which is simple, intense and insistent. People who live a dignified life often have something called obsession more than others. For this obsession, even if he is stabbed by love in the back, he will
You must also travel thousands of miles to Paris and take a photo of yourself under the Eiffel Tower
Congratulations on getting the talent: Color
What comes this time is not skills, but talents?
Chen Xing first read the results of the system rewards, and then looked back at the long message.
Huh?
Do I have to take photos under the Eiffel Tower?
Isn't this your mission?
Chen Xing couldn't deny that deep down in his heart he really wanted to come here for a visit, but if he compared this idea to an obsession and insisted on visiting, that would be a bit too much. Is the system an artistic process? That's fair.
Pretty good.
It just doesn’t sound like you’re talking about me.
How to use color talent? Chen Xing didn't pay attention. Talents and skills are different. Skills appear directly in the mind, just like you have studied this skill for decades and then haven't used it for a year or two. It feels a little rusty and is slightly familiar.
You can use it instantly.
Talent is not enough, you have to discover it slowly in life.
For example, the impact of his current friendly talent is unknown to him, but the effect is often beyond expectations.
He stood there for a while in order to read the system messages. Abeka curiously stood behind Chen Xing and looked at the photo taken by Chen Xing. The photo was very clear. The Eiffel Tower was on one side of the photo, and Chen Xing's body was on one side of the photo.
, above the head is the blue sky and leaves.
Chen Xing didn't know what she was thinking in the picture, her eyes were not as energetic as what she saw in daily life, her left hand was stretched out in front of her to hold her mobile phone, and the other hand was in her pocket.
So handsome!
Abeka thinks Chen Xing in the photo is even more handsome than in reality, and those black eyes are just amazing!
Except for the color, it looks like James McAvoy.
That was her idol. Abeka rarely compared the men she met in real life with her idol.
When Chen Xing came back to his senses, he saw Abeka's face getting closer and closer to his phone. He carefully looked at the pictures in the phone. That's right, it was the photo I took just now. Abeka's look was like this
Chen Xing thought he had opened something secret.
Putting away his phone, Chen Xing said: "Okay, if you want to take pictures, I will take some for you for free."
Abeka's eyes followed the phone all the way to Chen Xing's pocket, and then she said: "Don't you charge for taking pictures?"
Chen Xing smiled and motioned for Abeka to stand over.
By the way, do you make much more money as a photographer in Europe than in China?
When Chen Xing came to Paris, she felt that everything was expensive, including food and accommodation. Even taking the subway was much more expensive than in China. The shortest one-way subway costs 1.9 euros, which is almost 14 yuan, which is several times more expensive than in China. After taking several photos in a row, Chen Xing sat on a bench to check the photos. Abeka asked at the side: "I can't see clearly. How was your photo?"
"It's not bad. The camera picture is a bit small. I'll just upload it to your phone tomorrow."
Covering the camera, Chen Xing raised his head and moved his cervical spine, thinking about the photo he just took.
It turns out that this is color talent, which improves my sensitivity to color.
Abeka thought Chen Xing was looking at the Tower, so he took the initiative to introduce it: "When this tower was first built, Parisians hated it because they thought that such a tall building standing here would ruin the city appearance of Paris."
"Why?"
"Maybe it's because our urban buildings are not very good, and the appearance of the iron tower is too sudden, so it is very annoying. By the time of my grandfather's generation, the situation got better. We slowly accepted the existence of the iron tower and deeply understood it.
Love it."
Chen Xing smiled and thought Abeka's theory was quite interesting, and asked: "Then what do you think of the Eiffel Tower?"
"Didn't I say it? Deep love."
She emphasized her deep love with an emphasis on her tone.
Chen Xing nodded, stood up, looked at the dense queue of people under the tower, and asked: "How much does it cost to queue up?"
"The cost to go to the top of the tower is 25 euros. There is a restaurant on top. The food is pretty good, but it is difficult to make a reservation. It has to be made far in advance. Do I need to make a reservation?"
"What about the cost? Let me give up." Chen Xing said jokingly.
His money is enough to live in Paris for a month, but forget about going in and out of these luxury stores. For Chen Xing, the restaurant on the tower is a luxury store. For the countless restaurants on the streets, this place is flashy. p>
People queuing up to take the elevator were rubbing shoulders with each other. The long wait and intensive contact during the queuing process made Chen Xing consider whether to go up today.
He wanted to stand on a high place and see the scenery of Paris.
But if you climb the Eiffel Tower, you can certainly see the scenery, but the only thing missing is the Eiffel Tower itself, which is the most representative of Paris.
